edgro 676 #1 Posted May 23, 2015 Doing engine transplant, 16hp Briggs into 414-8, found the crank damaged from a loose pulley.Any suggested repairs?My thought is to use a full length key, grind the end flush with the shaft so the PTO will fit, and fill the hole with JB Weld.ThanksEd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boovuc 1,090 #2 Posted May 24, 2015 You can try it. Not sure how long it would last but it's the only quick fix. As I think you know, the real fix would be to pull the crank and have it welded and ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
